Quantum Programming

The course provides an introduction to quantum computing.

Quantum computational devices will likely be accessible in the near future. In the course, we mainly focus on techniques that will be used to program and work with them.

The course covers the following subjects:

  • Overview of concepts in linear algebra aimed at quantum computing
  • Simple quantum protocols
  • Quantum programming language
  • Quantum Annealers and quadratic unconstrained optimization problems
  • Non-local games
  • Quantum Internet
  • The hidden subgroup problem
  • Quantum Fourier Transform and applications
  • Quantum search
  • Quantum Error Correction
  • Simulation of quantum circuits

Are you curious about quantum programming and quantum computing? Then this is the course for you, says Mateus de Oliveira Oliveira, teacher of the course. Photo: Carina Bergholm

If you know some programming (15 credits required) and have an interest in mathematics, this course is designed for you.

We posed some questions to Mateus de Oliveira Oliveira, teacher of the course, about quantum programming, quantum computers and what you will learn in the course.
